LittleNovel(Olivia's POV)
The next morning, | woke to the familiar scent of white moonflowers drifting through my cottage window. My wolf
stirred uneasily, recognizing the Alpha's presence before | even looked outside.
There he was again. Ethan Stone stood at the entrance of Maple Grove Cottage Complex, holding a fresh
bouquet of my favorite flowers.
His powerful Alpha presence was impossible to ignore, even from three stories up. The morning sunlight caught
the amber flecks in his eyes as he gazed up at my window with desperate hope.
| deliberately turned away from the window. My wolf bristled at his persistent courtship, rejecting the mate bond
that still connected us despite everything.
This had been going on for days now. Every morning, the sroutine.
Ethan would arrive before dawn, positioning himself where | couldn't miss him when | left for work. His expensive
suits were always perfectly pressed, his dark hair immaculately styled.
But there was something different about him now. Something vulnerable that hadn't been there before.
The flowers were always fresh white moonflowers, never wilted or carelessly chosen. He must have them
specially delivered each morning from the Sacred Grove where they grew wild.
| grabbed my crystal design portfoand headed for the back exit. | refused to give him the satisfaction of
acknowledging his presence.
My wolf whined softly, confused by my rejection of our mate. But | pushed down those instincts.
Ethan Stone had forfeited the right to courtthe day he chose Victoria over our daughter.
That evening, | returned hto find him still there. This time, he had spread Stone Pack business documents
across a makeshift desk under the moonlight.
His laptop glowed in the darkness as he worked through pack finances and territorial agreements. Maxwell
Chen's car was parked nearby, the assistant waiting patiently for his Alpha.

Ethan's amber eyes found mine the moment | stepped out of my vehicle. Hope flared in their depths, quickly
followed by disappointment when | walked past without a word.
"Olivia," he called softly. His voice carried the authority of an Alpha King, but also something I'd never heard
before - pleading.
| paused at my cottage door but didn't turn around. My hand trembled slightly on the doorknob.
"I'll wait as long as it takes," he said. "I know | don't deserve your forgiveness, but | need you to know that I'm
not giving up."
The vulnerability in his voice made my wolf whimper. But | forced myself to enter the cottage without
responding.
Through my window, | watched him work until nearly midnight. His broad shoulders were hunched over the
documents, occasionally running his hands through his dark hair in frustration.
This continued for a full week. Every morning, the white moonflowers. Every evening, the patient vigil under the
stars.
My resolve was beginning to crack. Not because | forgave him, but because his persistence was wearing down
my defenses.
On the seventh day, | made a decision. If Ethan wanted to talk, then we would talk. But it would be on my terms.
| reopened our mate bond
communication for the first tin months. The mental link crackled to life between us, and I felt his shock
through the connection.
"Time, location," | sent through the bond, keeping my message brief and businesslike.
(Ethan's POV)
The message hitlike lightning
during a crucial Stone Pack
Enterprises board meeting. My heart
soared with hope as Olivia's voice
echoed through our reopened mate
bond.
She had unblocked our mental connection. After months of silence, my true mate was finally willing to
communicate.
